A vacation in a foreign land, Uncle Sam does the best he can.
   You're in the army now, oh, oh you're in the army - now.
  
   Now you remember what the draft man said, nothing to do all day
   but stay in bed. You're in the army now oh, oh you're in the army
   - now.
  
   You'll be the hero of the neighbourhood, nobody knows that you
   left for good. You're in the army now oh, oh, you're in the army
   - now.
  
   Smiling faces at you way to 'lam, but once you get there no one
   gives a damn. You're in the army now, oh, oh you're in the army -now.
  
   Hand grenades flying over your head, the sun's flying over your
   head. If you wanna survive get out of bed. You're in the army
   now, oh, oh, you're in the army - now.
  
   Shots ring out in the dead of night. The sergeant calls: "Stand
   up and fight!" You're in the army now, oh, oh you're in the
   army -now.
  
   You've got orders don't shoot on sight, your finger's on the
   trigger but it don't seem right. You're in the army now, oh, oh
   you're in the army - now. You're in the army now, oh, oh you're
   in the army -now.
  
   Night is falling and you just can't see, is this illusion or
   reality. You're in the army now, oh, oh you're in the army, in
   the army - now. You're in the army now, oh, oh you're in the army
   -now.
